Courtenay Celebration – March 21st
Nanaimo Celebration – March 20th (Click here for more information on the Nanaimo celebration)
The Temple of the Green Cauldron invites the public to attend our open ritual, celebrating the balance of day and night at the vernal equinox, by joining us in the circle or watching from without. On this day we are mid way between the dark of winter at Yule and the height of light at Litha, the summer solstice. As the daylight increases, we welcome the suns life-giving warmth, the first day of spring, and the fertility of the land. Plants emerge from their winter slumber and the sun warmed earth is being readied for planting.
This is a time of rebirth, renewal, and action following winter’s rest. There is an urge towards spring house cleaning, and taking stock of what work and repairs are needed. It is a time of new beginnings and the chance to re-evaluate our lives and then correct imbalances.
A potluck meal will follow the ritual, so bring along your favourite treat to share with everyone.
The fundraiser will be the last opportunity you will have to purchase books-so bring your loonies, toonies and quarters.
A donation to the cauldron of prosperity to cover expenses is greatly appreciated!
The Temple would like to remind everyone that while photography is not forbidden, we ask that you please get permission from those who will be in your picture before you click.
The Courtenay ritual will be held at the Lewis Centre, 489 Old Island Highway. Doors open at 12:30, ritual to start at 1:00.
